UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NMEICT supports the creation of high quality digital learning materials, training of teachers and provision of broadband connectivity. Its aim is to democratise education by reaching learners in remote and disadvantaged regions. By emphasising access, equity and quality, the mission aligns with national policy goals. This option summarises that vision.

Option A:
This option correctly points to both infrastructure and content as focus areas. It recognises that ICT integration is not just about hardware but also about pedagogy and resource development. Such a holistic view is central to understanding the mission.

Option B:
Closing computer labs would reduce ICT access and contradict the mission’s purpose. NMEICT advocates more, not less, use of digital tools.

Option C:
Restricting resources to private companies would undermine public educational institutions and equity goals. NMEICT targets universities, colleges and students widely.

Option D:
Using ICT only for entertainment ignores its potential for academic transformation. NMEICT is explicitly about education, not just recreation.
